Learning from the Russians
How to Make Your House Cozy and Warm for the Winter
Part 2
by Susan Dunn

Page: 1 2 3

Sitting there in Kidzhi, I imagined Neanderthals huddled around the fire, getting as close to each other and their animals as they could, to stay warm. And yes, in the Kidzhi larger cabins, one of the rooms was a winter barn for the livestock where the animals spent the winter.

I thought of "3 dog nights," nights so cold the eskimos bedded down with 3 dogs, instead of 2, or 1, or none.

I always start "nesting" in the fall. I want to stay home more, and start doing handwork again --sometimes knitting sweaters, sometimes needlepoint pillow or pictures. I bake more, fix hearty stews and steamy chilis and homemade bread, the staff of life.

What can you do to make your home "warmer" in the winter? Work with that primitive scene -- the furs, the closeness, the color of fire, the need to hunker down.

15 Tips For Taking It Up A Notch

1. Change to the winter slip covers, in warm fabrics such as velvet or corduroy, in deep colors of the fire. Remember it goes to "blue" when it's hottest. Deep jewel tones, dark golds, rich magentas and burnt oranges, a splash of ultraviolet blue.

2. Bring out the accent pieces -- some pillows with handwork you've bought or made, the winter afghan draped casually over the sofa.

3. Rearrange the furniture just a litte, bringing things in closer, and closer to the fireplace, so people can figuratively "huddle."

4. Throw down some throw rugs. (You can always find some super deals on carpet-remnant area rugs if you look around.) I live in South Texas where I enjoy the tile floors for the 8 months it's over 90 degrees, but they are sooo cold looking and feeling in the winter, so I bring out the area rugs.

5. Buy a Lab and put him on his bed in front of the fireplace. j.k. about buying one for the occasion, but is there anything like watching your animal companion nestled in his bed by the hearth? Buy him a special winter bed; it's very much a part of the scene, isn't it?

6. Change out the bedspreads and duvets to the winter fabrics and color scheme, and bring out the flannel sheets.

7. Start a collection of 'winter' pictures you build over the years. I've framed different photos of the kids skiing, in their snowsuits, and trying to catch snowflakes with their tongues. They peek out at me at different ages, bringing back warm winter memories.
